Xbox 360 New Dash Update (6th Dec 2011) - Anyone got it downloading yet?

[The Fatty]

So im sitting here turning my Xbox on/off periodically hoping to see the "Update Availible" prompt, nothing as of yet though! Anyone else had the update yet (excluding beta testers)?

 

[Turkish]

Is it going live as of US time or UK, if the former then go to bed and just set it going in the morning.

 

[Xanda73]

Wow, you love your Xbox too much.

 

[The Fatty]

Yes I do love my xbox a little to much still no update as of yet so I guess it will be based on US time... time for bed :sleepy:

[mugglesquop]

great.

pisses me off when i want to have a quick go (dont get on it much) and i have to wait bloody ages for updates - if its not the console its the game :banghead:

 

[Turkish]

Be thankful it's not a PS3, much slower and a bigger/more frequent pain in the ass where updates are concerned.

 

[@Spoonie]

Yep

 

[Gouldy]

I updated the ps3 the other day and it took the piss.

I'll be blazing the Xbox today me thinks.

 

[Naith]

Is there much to be excited about other than a few new shiny menus?

FFSnake. Where?

 

[Sym0n]

Major Nelson tweeted that it was delayed earlier -> https://twitter.com/#!/majornelson

And this is when it should have rolled out world wide.

Delayed. Was scheduled for 3pm UK.

 

[AK]

Baws.

Had it about a month now.

A lot of functionality was left out of the preview version, the stuff I was interested in were anyway. I wanted to see some video apps working like 4OD and to use the cloud game saves on Forza 4. So looking forward to eventually trying these features out this month.

 

[The Fatty]

Still no update?! A whole day at work looking forward to this!!! Grrr!!! I would have thought Microsoft would have been able to get an update out on time!!

 

[Nickson]

Just noticed this, turned the Xbox on and no update!

I want it!

 

[Jon.G]

Probably expect it tomorrow for us lot now. It'll no doubt be late tonight its sorted.

 

[cadab]

Its been delayed (obviously ) was on Major Nelsons tweets anyway. So yeah, will have to wait till tomorrow now

 

[The Fatty]

Nelsons tweets have been a letdown as well! He just keeps saying the same thing; 'i know nothing'!

 

[Gouldy]

ive just been sent an email about this, is it out yet?

 

[The Fatty]

No not yet

 

[Rasclart]

Jesus it is an XBOX Dash update LOL

 

[The Fatty]

Update is rolling out now...

 

[Chapppers11]

Nothing amazing at first glance, what's new?

 

[The Fatty]

Got my download at 3am! Really likeing the new look and feel!

 

[Nickson]

Mine updated a moment ago.

Looks very nice!

 

[Sym0n]

Like the design although I'm not sure it's all that intuitive, seems like everything is hidden away and you have to dig down to find certain things.

That said though I only had a 2 minute play with it this morning so there could be a way to change the top level, one thing I couldn't find is iPlayer or 4OD etc. :S

 

[James172Cup]

Is there a browser on it now? Or is it mainly video on demand services?

YouTube/4od/iPlayer support is next year IIRC. January.

 

[AK]

Yeah it says "coming in winter"

Looks ok. I don't spend a lot of time at the dash anyway.

Will be better when YT & iPlayer etc come along.

 

[.Adam.]

Is Lovefilm available straight away?

 

[AK]

Yup.

Special £4.99 price for unlimited streaming, apparently.
